HOW TO PLAY

Image B Play begins with a Face-Off at center ice.
Image C FACE-OFF: Both players start with their hands off the controls and placed on the table, floor, or lap. On the count of three, race your hands to the Player Control Unit and use your ENGLISH control unit to try to drive the "PUCK" past your opponent. (Players alternate counting for each Face-Off.)
Image D SHOT ON GOAL: The offense must cross the red line into his opponent's territory before making a SHOT ON GOAL that will count, otherwise the goal will not count. A new Face-Off is made from center ice. Also after each GOAL is made, there is a center Face-Off.
Image E ICING If the PUCK crosses the red line and goes off the goal edge of the screen without entering the net, the PUCK is ICED and a Face-Off is held on the wing of the offensive player's ice.
Image F If the PUCK goes past the net, and if the Offensive Player made tghe shot while on the Defender's ice, the Face-Off is held on the Face-Off Circle closest to the side where the PUCK went off.
Image G OFFSIDE: If the puck goes off the top or the bottom of the playing surface and does not return to the rink before reaching the goal edge of the screen, it is considered OFFSIDE. The Face-Off is held in the Face-Off circle nearest the point where the puck went out of play.
Image H OFF THE BOARD PASS: If the puck goes off the top or the bottom of the playing surface and does return to the rink before reaching the goal edge of the screen, it is considered a good Off The Board Pass.
Image I GOALS: The colored nets of the goal must be lighted to score a goal. The puck may not enter the goal through the black line. The score is one point for each goal. In order for a goal to be considered legal, the puck must enter the goal in one of the ways illustrated.
Image J PENALTY: If the Goalie enters his own colored net area while defending his Goal, it is a FOUL. The offending Goalie must then use only one hand on his Player Control for the next two plays.
